I'm Sorry Family Poems
Published: December 22, 2022
When you live in close proximity with other human beings there will be many times that you will offend each other. Families inevitably hurt each other from time to time. Saying "I'm sorry" are the two words that can repair your relationship. Without apologies the bad feelings are allowed to grow until eventually they grow into something so big and ugly that it is almost impossible to repair. It is difficult to humble ourselves and admit that that we may have made a mistake. However, when you think about the repercussions of not making a simple apology, you will realize that it's worth the effort.
9 Poems Of Apology And Regret To Family

1. My Daughter, My Friend
I see the pain in your eyes and feeling like you do.
I wish I could take it all away and skip these years for you.
Being a teen is so very hard, it really isn't fair
To go through all of this and still feel like no one is there.
You don't have to tell me how you feel, I see it every day,
Like nothing you ever do is good enough, or you're just in the way.
If you could see through my eyes, how confident and true
You becoming a young woman, but still somewhat a youth.
I can't make this feeling go away, I can't fix all of your tears,
But I can tell you that I know the feelings and the fears.
If you ask me how I know all that you are going through,
I will answer simply, I know this all because... I have been there too.
I LOVE YOU - MomFeatured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

2. Love At Last
I remember the good times
that we once had...
but still my life
is oh...so sad
I try to look forward,
but my mind goes back...
because a piece of the glass
on our portrait is cracked.
I try so hard to protect the glass.
I won't let it shatter...
Because you and your love
are all that matters.
My family is all
that means anything to me.
Still...everything always
gets blamed on me.
This happens to moms
all over the world.
We're supposed to be perfect;
we learn this as girls.
I have never been great
or the "best of moms"...
And at times I've failed
by the things I've done wrong.
For those things, I am sorry.
I didn't want you to cry...
but please remember
my eyes are not dry.
I hope you can find
our love that seems lost.
For the mistakes I have made
came at a very high cost.
A piece of my life,
is missing and gone.
And everything feels
Oh so wrong.
But there is one thing
that I can do.
I will try to be strong
just for you.
One thing I feel
down deep in my heart.
It's my love for you.
I guess that's a start.
You have a new son
now growing inside.
And I hope that you feel
each of his kicks with pride.
You will feel love
like never before.
It is your family
you will completely adore.
It's a new beginning.
you will forget the past.
It completes you as a woman.
It will be "love at last."Featured Shared StoryI was so surprised someone endured a mother's pain such as I experienced. My husband was a philanderer and also left me alone a lot in Winnipeg. The children and I coped, but it was lonely. A...

3. Complicated Families
in Anger Poems
So many tears shed in the dark of night,
hidden away in our private thoughts
only to be shelved with morning's first light.
Because of no courage to speak of the pain,
this part of our lives remains the same...
Mothers and Fathers, Sisters and Brothers
gather for holidays they hope will heal,
while gathered together sharing a meal,
what they bring, back from the past,
perhaps they'll be able to bed it, at last.
Years of analysis, a lifetime of good,
can be shattered with just one word,
maybe a look, or gesture of scorn;
any of which destroys years of progress,
all the good overturned.
At least that's what I'm told
over and over again...
I sit by a letter, addressed to my sister,
no courage to post it, no guts to muster.
I've written the things I needed to say;
will she get my meaning or stray away
into her own thoughts to calm her that day?
thoughts of comfort, truth not portrayed.
It must be nice to be the favored child of choice,
to not know the feelings of a life not rejoiced,
to know through life, whatever wrong you've done
in the eyes of the parents, you'll remain number one;
to not know what it's like to give of your soul
for recognition that you will never, ever know...Featured Shared StoryI was touched by this amazing poem and I can relate to every single word. Just like me, I've been through all of these sad things.

4. Three Famous Words
It was the first time they met.
They didn't have a clue,
The future that would await them,
The feelings they never knew.
It was the guy's eyes she had seen.
They were brown and dark as night.
It was the girl's friendly smile,
And their love at first sight.
It was the first time they spoke,
And no, it was no myth,
That while she stared into his eyes,
He was the one she wanted to be with.
Even though he felt the same,
This girl, she did not know,
That he loved her with all his heart,
But his feelings he did not show.
So after many hopeless days,
The girl no more believed in fate,
That was when the guy realized
That he had made a huge mistake.
He came back just in time
To steal that poor girl's heart away.
She forgave and she forgot
All the nights she lied awake.
He told her that he was sorry,
And if he could have a second chance.
It was just a while after
That they had their first kiss and dance.
He always tells her that he is sorry,
And how much he really cares.
She believes him and forgives,
Both their feelings they deeply share.
So every night he tells her
Before she turns out her light,
Those three little famous words,
I love you, and goodnight.Featured Shared StoryThis is really an amazing poem! It helped me through my struggles with my girl. We tend to fight a lot but I know that this poem showed us how much we care for each other and that we can't...

5. Now You Are Gone
in Forgiveness Poems about Love
A heart is torn open,
A love is broken,
A life is empty,
With few words spoken.
The words are spoken,
Are what I appear
Like the loss of your love,
Is the blank I fear.
Knowing you hate me
Is a terrible fate.
I thought there was hope,
But it was too late.
What is spoken is spoken,
And what is done is done.
I spoke without thinking,
And now you are gone.
I hope one day that I will
Earn your heart back
Because I still truly love you
And that is a fact.Featured Shared StoryIt's funny how sometime it's the guy that says the wrong thing, and the girl disappears. It goes the other way most the time. As long as you're sorry and that they truly love you, they should...

6. More Than Life
To my so sweet babies,
Who suffer through this most,
I am so very sorry
You must read this in a post.
If only I could hold you
When your time of need is great.
I hope one day you'll know,
And for me you won't feel hate.
I wish that I could take away
All the tears you've cried for me.
I would give up the world
To keep you from pain, you see.
I want to chase away
All your bad dreams at night,
And be there to guide you
When you don't feel quite right.
To share in all your happiness
Is still a dream for me.
I hope you know I love you
More than life, you see.Featured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

7. Sorry
The phrase "I'm Sorry" you may agree
Has turned into a social amenity
We say "I'm Sorry" more than Brenda Lee
Which was a hit song for her back in 1960.
You may not want to acknowledge the damage you've done,
The pain that you've brought to spouse, daughter or son.
But if you've done wrong you must see the light
To take a pro-active step to returning things right
There will remain feelings that you can't erase,
Lost time and memories that you can't replace.
Because of your actions, now nothing's the same.
Take a look in your mirror and know that there's blame.
Maybe those words are ones you won't do.
They may not exist in your new age point of view.
Or, don't want to hear the anger, it might make you blue.
It's easier to leave your loved ones hurt and askew.
Just saying I'm sorry is not all it takes,
No magical words to make gone the mistakes.
Begin the road back with those words from your heart.
They do not mark the end but maybe a start.
Your family's your bond like no other glue.
A great family we had, can we renew?
Deep in your heart you know what to do.
If I can say "I'm sorry," then I think you can too.Featured Shared StoryThat was the best poem I ever heard. Thanks it really touched me.

8. Trouble
Troubled times are here, as we knew they would come
Not because of the situation, just because life in general is not always fun
But we can overcome them, together we must
Because the love that we have shared was surely built with trust
Times are daring in any family it seems
Rocking the boat to fulfill our dreams
We can build the obstacles but must remember to knock them down
For if we don't there will surely be trouble by leaps and bounds
I think along the way somehow we forgot to knock down
The obstacles that are tearing at our hearts and apparent trouble that abounds
Let's take the time to clear the obstacles and go back to loving each other
We're here to listen to your choices, let's stop hurting one another
Right or wrong it's always God's call
We must remember, it is us who will ultimately take the fall
So in my heart I do not think it is worth it just to be right
Life is too short not to say we love you and we won't give up without a fight
Featured Shared StoryThis story has touched me, just because my family is a lot like that. My parents down me and don't help me walk the walk with God. I am the only one in my house saved. I go to church...

9. Truly
There are times I feel so lost and ashamed.
These feelings are my own fault, so I am solely to blame.
Certain actions in my life I am not proud of.
The looks from people who are close to me I know are not of love.
My actions of recent years are truly genuine
as I have promised over and over to be true and walk a straight line.
Wanting only to be trusted and loved once again.
Another betrayal I promise never again will I commit a sin.
Please believe in me forever and always for I am being true.
I want to get back to a normal life where this action doesn't cause anymore blues.
Remember, I will always be true to you!Featured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!
